How to Make Smoked Mussel Soup

  1. In a large saucepan, combine the condensed chicken soup, mussel paste, diced tomatoes (undrained), milk, and water.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  3. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the dried thyme, dried oregano, flour, and heavy cream until smooth.
  5. Gradually whisk the cream mixture into the simmering soup, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
  6. Continue to cook over low heat for 5-7 minutes, or until the soup has slightly thickened. Do not boil.
  7. Remove from heat and stir in the dry sherry (if using) and sugar.
  8. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Ladle the soup into bowls and serve immediately with slices of crusty bread.
